I'm still nervous about losing my Shaq assist!

I captained him myself but after all the replays I don't think he touched it. I think Kane is deluding himself into believing he touched it in his desperation to get the golden boot

"Tottenham have lodged an appeal to the Premier League in a bid to ensure Harry Kane is credited for their second goal against Stoke, according to Sky sources."

"Obviously as a striker, it would be great to win the Golden Boot again and I will keep working hard from now until the end of the season. I swear on my daughter’s life that I touched the ball! But there’s nothing I can d

Here’s the comments.

I only hope he gets it if Fantasy Football will credit it to him

Remember that time FF broke their own rules by changing an assist AND bonus the day after the gameweek had ended
I do

Their rules mean nothing

Let’s be clear. I’m not saying he did or did not touch it. As someone who scored 14 points in total last week any chance of Kane scoring and as my captain would be HUGE. I obviously hope it’s awarded to him “if” fantasy football will award him the points aswell

There is no new video evidence
So if they felt they could prove he didn't touch it Saturday and therefore take the goal way then it should not be changed
As I said Saturday the goal was originally awarded to him . So the video evidence had to prove he didn't touch it imo to take the goal away(as was the case with other simslr goals which stood ). I don't think the video did that so it should have been left as a Kane goal.
If it's now changed because he says so with the same video evidence available it's crazy.
It would also be unprecedented so who knows what will happen

No chance.

Its the equivalent of a red card being rescinded. No changes will be made to FF.

In one of my MLs I am now 60 behind a rival. Was closer to a hundred but made some dents recently. Do ye think it's possible to close the gap?

My squad
Ddg/fab
bong/Morgan/legenue/Fernandez/lowton
Salah/son/willian/gross/mahrez
Lukaku/PEA/Austin

His squad
Ddg/Elliot
Robertson/azpi/mustafi/Jones/babies
Salah/Miki/Sterling/fernandino/tpt
Jesus/firmino/j Ayew

I have FH and BB. Him just the BB.

I feel I'm well set to have a decent DGW34 team with no hits required. FH then 35 and most likely BB 37.

Update : gap now down to 49 points my 32 v his 25 this week and a 4 point hit for him (his first of the season!)

Big week incoming as I have 10DGW players and two FTs. He has just 5 currently and one FT. Course we all know the perils of relying on DGW players......

Fcuking hell!

I think I’ll be buying the penalty takers of teams with an English striker next season!

Context of tweet. Tomkins is looking at whether English players ‘win’ more penalties than their foreign counterparts.

In the only € league I'm in, the guy in second (70 points behind me) took a four point hit to transfer out Lukaku and Otamendi, for Kane and Mawson, and captained Kane. I also captained Kane!

Plugging his team into that famous spreadsheet and he hasn't bettered his playing options for GW34. Still just 5 DGW players for him compared to my 7 (8 when I get Lukaku). He's already used his FH as well!

Same guy also has Firmino and Tosun while I have Auba and Vardy!

Show me the money!!! :pac:

Can you see if someone is playing their bench boost or free hit before the gameweek starts?

Playing someone in a head to head and want to work out what they’re doing for GW34.

Watch changes in their TV for free hit
No way of knowing for BB

In a club last man standing that has run on for many weeks now with everyone constantly picking the same team. This is the first week whereby the top 6 have all been picked so it now becomes very interesting. Thoughts on which team outside the top 6 may win today? Some very tricky ties - I'm leaning towards Leicester as Newcastle are due a slip up and they have a poor record against the Foxes.

Leicester (home to Newcastle) or Brighton (Home to Huddersfield) seem like the two stand out ones outside the top six. Leicester more so, of course.

Son/Kane

I sold Auba and am a United fan so may have bias

Yeah, going forward, I think this makes more sense. Spurs have two games next week (albeit one is against City) so if I keep him in I can use the one FT to bring in Lukaku for Auba.

I'll leave the captaincy on Captain Kane as well. I'm all set for this weekend so! Now just sit back and watch as my WC team plays out a complete and utter disaster!! :rolleyes::pac:

I think your team is well set up for this week but Kane rising would be a worry for me and I would most likely make the transfer if I was you.

Thanks

I got away with it as Son rising too made me .1 on him so I can live for this weekend and then make the move!

Going to be hard to watch Spurs vs Stoke though. An early goal and we could see a 4-0... or worse. Auba cap for me

Omeceron

How can I check if the Head to Head league I'm in goes to knock out rounds?

The administrator cant remember what he set and he cant find any info in the admin area.

Have exact funds to get Kane and Kenedy in for Firmino and Son

If I wait next week with 2 free transfers it's Kane and Gross/Lingard in for Auba and Son.

BB in 34, so the second one makes more sense but selling Auba but he has being doing pretty damn good recently and good fixtures to come.

Have 10 for the double either way, which isn't bad. Salah out for Liverpool and the CL might hinder Firmino's points, but then again Mkhit is out for Arsenal and that might hinder Aubameyang's points + no double

So should I stick with the current team and do 2 free transfers next week, or get Kane now and keep Auba too?

DdG Ryan
Alonso Mustafi Robertson Morgan Lowton
Salah Mahrez Son Willian Gudmundsson
Aubam Firmino Vardy.

Team is decent enough too and I have 0.0 in the bank if I go for Kane/Kenedy now. Slightly have the Kane fear but he is going to rise tonight (likely) and keep me .1 short tomorrow annoyingly!
